Ocean Suites at One Pacific Residence - Mactan Newtown

We lived in this place from May 02 to May 06, 2024 with our family (2 adults, 2 children). The apar**ents left me with a mixed feeling. First, about the advantages: good location, good restaurants, supermarkets nearby, you can easily walk to Magellan's tomb. The room is quite large with a separate bedroom with a double bed and a spacious wardrobe, a separate kitchen-living room with two sofas (we had enough to spread out one to sleep two children). The room has a utility room with a washing and drying machine - this was a pleasant surprise. All residents are given a pass to the nice Savoy beach, there is a shuttle there or you can walk there. The beach is good. There are nice clean swimming pools on site. You need to understand that this is not a hotel in its classic form, no one will clean the room, change towels and bed linen, etc. The purpose of our 4-day stay in Mactan was to visit the south of Cebu (swimming with sharks, turtles, sardines, Kawasan waterfall) and an excursion to the island of Bohol. From this point there are excursion routes to the places we need. Now about the minuses: there is no luggage storage room, we arrived 3 hours before check-in time, since early check-in was impossible, we wanted to leave our bags and go for a walk and eat, but it turned out that the luggage storage room is paid and in a completely different building and it’s hot there You still have to walk with your bags. But the main disadvantage is some kind of karaoke nightclub right under the hotel windows. The music there plays very loudly from the evening until late at night (2:30 am!!!). The volume was so loud that our windows on the 8th floor vibrated! It's almost impossible to sleep! Imagine that you leave for an excursion at 4:00 in the morning. And the music is blasting until 2:00! This of course greatly worsens the quality of rest!!!!

It was friendly and nice~ I recommend it~
